The add-ons for removing duplicate emails in Thunderbird do not work for the latest version of Thunderbird, 128.0

Anyone know how I might search all my emails for duplicates and decide which ones to delete?

Every time I restart Thunderbird it looses my tab settings, I use many open tabs one for each email accounts inbox and then a few more, after a restart, I am force to close all except the first and the calendar and chats which are fine, and then manually open them all again, this needs fixing

I followed all of the appropriate steps including downloading the add-on to try and upload my .mbox google takeout folder. However, when I go to upload it, my computer won't let me select the folder. What should I do?

The old email account is from when I was in grad school and I no longer have access to this email. I'm really hoping to open it to pull out some important info.

I printed an email from Thunderbird before responding to it. When I went to reply, it had disappeared from the Inbox. After some hunting I found it in the All Mail folder, but it refused to be moved or copied to the Inbox. Even when I forwarded it to myself it did not appear in the Inbox. The message was still present on the Gmail server but Thunderbird would not download it via Imap. Have I missed a setting or does Thunderbird consider an email to be deleted once it is printed?

I have three accounts in Thunderbird. On one account Thunderbird freezes when I try to delete any mail in the inbox. I have removed all mails in the inbox and put one mail back (have tried several different emails)to test and it still freezes. This problem occurs when deleting from any folder in this account. Deleting mail in the other accounts works ok.

Why is the default display ALWAYS set to threaded conversations? From my point of view this is insane as emails seem to have 'disappeared' without trace. This is probably IMHO the most inconvenient feature of Thunderbird email.

until recently to select multiple messages on the message list pane, I held the CTRL depressed and clicked on the messages I wanted to select. Then could do an operation e.g. DELETE or MOVE on all the selected messages at once. That doesn't work anymore. Only one message can be selected at a time, and gets deselected when another message is selected. The CTRL key has no effect.

I had growing problems ever since updating to Supernova. I updated again to 115.5.2 which didn't help. So I thought, right, start again. I uninstalled Thunderbird and installed 115.9.0. Now I have no folders in the folder pane and no messages. Please see screenshot. I have checked that Thunderbird is using the right profile. I have 1 IMAP email account and 23 POP3 accounts, 19Gb of messages going back many years, all saved for good reasons, mostly business. I can't see any of them, nor incoming messages.

Quick question if I may, Can someone confirm that 'local folders' are included in a Backup of my profile? (I am a little unsure of this because I don't understand what local folders are for. Are they just to remove emails from my email service providers site therefore keeping me within storage quotas?) Thanks Chris

Hello, The 'Import' option in Thunderbird only seems to be able to import all emails from Outlook. I wish to import only ONE email at a time. How is that done please? Regards Philip Kelly

Under Account Settings, I went to synchronization&storage, clicked Advanced to be sure the files would be available offline. I exited Thunderbird & used File Explorer to go to my root directory to Profiles. There were 2 files, one with the ext of .default-esr which was a large file. The other with ext of .default which was a very small file. I copied both of these to an external drive. Under Account Settings I went to Copies & Folders & under Message Archives, I didn't know what to choose. I need to know how to copy to the Local Folders of the profile for each email account which is 2, Gmail & Hotmail or Outlook. Thanks.

Is thunderbird down?? I cannot seem to get or send e-mails. This has been going on since morning.. Since I cannot get an e-mail could you respond by text to my cel phone? [edited phone# from public community forum].

I am new to Thunderbird and I store my Gmail’s in different storage folders which show up in my Thunderbird menu. How do I move individual emails to different designated storage folders. I do not want to use dragon drop because I might want to do a number of them so how do I simply move an individual email into a storage folder

I got this notification:

"You must have the 'Encrypt' button present in your compose window toolbar to be able to schedule messages with Send Later. If you removed it some point, you need to customize the toolbar and put it back. This is due to a Thunderbird bug which we hope will be fixed soon."

I don't use encryption, but do use "Send Later." I also never removed the button. I tried to customize both the main toolbar and the one in the composition window; neither one had a button under "customize" for encryption. Can anyone help with this?

Sorry I'm not making myself clear. I want to save the emails to where I can access them if needed later. After I have that I want to delete the older emails in Gmail to make the inbox and folders smaller. Thunderbird will then sync the inbox which will be considerably smaller. It appears that archiving will do this but I don't know how to copy the emails to Local Folders. It appears that Thunderbird will still be able to search & find the old emails if I need them. After deleting them, Thunderbird will be syncing the smaller inbox instead of all of them. I copied the Profiles directory from the appdata string to an external drive which it appears I have backed the profile up.

質問お願い致します。 先程、誤ってメールを送信してしまいました。 受信側のメールも削除したいのです。 申し訳ありません。 回答よろしくお願い致します。

Please ask any questions. I sent an email by mistake earlier. I also want to delete the email on the receiving side. very sorry. Thank you for your reply.

Thunderbird 115.12.2 is generating an overlay over the body of an email message blocking the user from clicking on the login link when they move the mouse cursor close to the login button contained in the email body.

Hopefully the attached images adequately demonstrate what is happening.

What is this feature called and how do I disable it please?

Thanks
